My 2006 WRX SL PPP -JamieKerry

[JamieKerry]

A few pics of my recently acquired 2006 WRX, completely newbie when it comes to Subaru's but reading and learning as I go. If anyone has info on the car it would be great.

No fancy mods on it yet, want to keep the car subtle and somehwat simple, maybe a nice set of wheels and a front lip.

From what I can see it has the PPP, TEIN EDFC Suspension, Aluminum rad.

I was told by the previous owner that it was the last 2L Turbo WRX sold in Ireland and 1 of 3 PPP models. Open to correction on this.

First owner was Subaru Ireland as per the book with the car.

Really clean car man. Looks fantastic! I actually realised looking through your pictures that my wagon too has the Prodrive exhaust and the blue Prodrive hose in the engine bay. I have part service history and now I'm wondering if my car has the PPP too!!! Any way of checking this out with the Vin number?

Sounds like it could have the PPP, not sure if you can tell from the VIN. A rolling road will definitely tell you though! :-D

sweet car, looking very clean and nice. And as per Reg number, yes, it is very plausible this is the last blob 2.0 wrx registered in Ireland, because I have seen hawks with reg number smaller than this.

Enjoy the car, it looks like you have done very good purchase many happy miles with her

Lovely car, I'm nearly sure the ppp impreza came with a certificate verifying it is genuine prodrive enhanced spec

If its a UK import with a PPP then an email to Subaru UK may tell you.

Thanks for the info. It's an Irish car as far as I know, bought by the Subaru garage in Glenageary originally.

Subaru Ireland may have info.

Thanks for all the nice comments.. will get her on the dyno shortly and see what's what with the power. West coast performance are only about 30mins away.

They are hooked up to the little box in the car for adjusting the suspension electronically.

According to the last owner the cert was lost somewhere down the line if owners. The ecu does have writing on it but going to pop it on the dyno soon to see... Fingers crossed the figures match up.

Dosent really matter if they don't man

Possibly won't as fuel quality gotten worse in last few years.

Drive he on and enjoy

It's nice to have if you leave the car standard
if your modifying it then it's useless
as you will most likely
remap
change intercoller for a STi one
so its only something that needs to preserved / verified if staying that way
sports cat is only real thing that will stay once mods start
id guess any car with the pro drive inter cooler pipe as long as other options are there too or have been changed for better is most likely genuine
as Dave said Subaru Uk. etc. Can verify your cars ðelivery spec or Subaru Ireland possibly if Irish car
I've noticed a lot of well speed cars here where Subaru Ireland Demonstrators cars
I'd say 1 -2 per year where sold to each garage after Subaru Ireland drove them as staff cars for a few months
usually this is the way from any main dealers I worked in
Garage it was originally from is unfortunately gone Barkell Motors.
My car was from there too
Nice Fella
